SAFETY RESTRAINTS
Important safety restraints
precautions
The use of safety belts helps to
restrain both driver and passengers
in case of a collision. In most
states and Canada, the law
requires the use of safety belts.
Always drive and ride with
your seatback upright and
the lap belt snug and low across
the hips.
Lock the doors of your
vehicle before driving to
lessen the risk of the door
coming open in a collision.
Cargo should always be
secured to prevent it from
shifting and causing damage to
the vehicle or harm to
passengers.
To prevent the risk of
injury, make sure children
sit where they can be properly
restrained.
